Nixon: "The 2 centres have provided over 45,000 connections or referrals to services...Alberta’s innovative approach has raised the bar across Canada, & other jurisdictions are taking note of our success.ā€ How many GOT services? They won't say. #abpoli rdnewsnow.com/2025/03/28/gov…

@DanWilliamsALTA Detox beds are great, but last I checked, they don’t save lives during an overdose. Calgarians know we need BOTH. 294 signatures say you're missing the point. Sign here: forms.gle/thJn62ijK4bJ346N7 #ableg #yyccc #abpoli

a community member needed some help today. he was disoriented, tired and dehydrated. there were two cop cars on our street, talking to him out of their car windows. since i don't like cops hanging around my neighborhood hassling my neighbors i went out there with some water...

Every year the gov't somehow gets someone to treat the Alberta Model like it's just getting started, it's a bold new initiative, critics are just impatient and don't believe, and we'll see the results soon. It isn't. Every client I had who was stable a few years ago is unstable
I really enjoyed reading this story. Have to wish Mr Smith and Alberta every success in saving as many lives as possible. At least they are walking their talk and investing in recovery and treatment.
